Car Search Results In Cocaine Arrest

FORT LAUDERDALE — Police said they didn`t have to look too far for evidence to arrest Peter Bisogno on a felony drug charge and confiscate his $35,000 Porsche.

After stopping the man for driving 100 mph on Federal Highway, they found the first clue right under his nose, officials said.

``The driver exited the vehicle with cocaine still under his nose and upper lip. He had cocaine on his black trousers as well,`` said a police report.

That led to a search of Bisogno`s car that produced a small plastic bag containing a gram of the drug, police said.

Bisogno, 37, of Oakland Park, was charged with possession of cocaine and reckless driving. Police towed away his car and, according to records, are planning to seek its forfeiture because it was used in the commission of a felony, officials said.

Bisogno`s arrest came about 2 a.m. Sunday after an officer said he saw the 1982 blue Turbo Porsche speed through the intersection of Federal Highway and Oakland Park Boulevard. Officers followed the speeding car north to Commercial Boulevard.
